Hobie Classic

The Hobie Classic is a timeless template that is well suited for a wide range of surf craft. Sporting a medium base, and full tip area, combined with generous rake, the Classic will provide fluid turnability alongside ample stability. The Classic name is well deserved for this versatile and enduring design. Whether you ride in a mid-length, speed shape, 2+1 or log, the Classic will provide performance and predictability via the four size offerings. Hobie Alter was a legendary surfer, shaper, and businessman who grew up alongside the sport of surfing. He began shaping balsa wood boards as a teenager in 1950, opened up Hobie Surfboards – Southern California’s first surf shop in 1954, and in 1958 he and his buddy Gordon Clark invented the polyurethane foam surfboard. Between his innovations and timeless designs, Alter left behind a real legacy in the surfboard industry.  Medium base and full tip area Designed for versatile single fins and 2+1 setups Solid fiberglass construction, gloss finish
